N.
Float Adjustment
– Open water-supply shut-off valve, check for and fix any leaks. Adjust float for a water
depth of 2 inches below top of trough or overflow pipe by adjusting the thumbscrew. With the valve functioning
properly and the water level set at the proper level, you may install the valve cover. The water seal groove
between the frame and valve cover must be filled with liquid to create a protective seal from cold winter air
getting to the valve.
O.
Cable Heater
– Uncoil cable heater and loop around the valve.
Attach the remaining part of the cable heater to the water supply, as
far down the riser tube as possible with the cable twist ties provided.
This heater is water tight, but should not be immersed in water.
Heater may cross over itself, but should not be tightened at those
locations.
CAUTION: Installation must not cause any strain on
heater wiring connections. Avoid heater damage
caused by hot spots due to its leads lying close to
each other. Also, do not wrap additional insulation
around heater.
P.
Install Side Access Panel –
Once all water line connections
have been checked for leaks and electrical hook-up is complete, the
side access door may be installed.
Q.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance –
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instructions concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
R.
Cleaning Your Fountain
– To clean your watering fountain you will need a good stiff bristled brush.
Remove the cover then brush the water seal groove to remove any build-up then brush the tank. Remove the plug
that is located at the end of the trough to drain out the water and debris. You can shut off the water with the shut-
off valve located under the unit or by holding the float in the up position. After the water and debris has drained
reinstall the plug and let the tank refill. Now is a good time to readjust the float if needed. Reinstall cover and
you are done.
